1833 Capped Bust Half - is this a die clash, or something else?

See the two diagonal parallel raised marks between vertical stripes three and four. At first, these look like die clash marks from Liberty’s bow obverse. However if that was true, why do they only show up between vertical stripes three and four? Or, do I faintly see them continue through stripes 2 and 3, I think I do.

What do you think? Are they something else?

PS... can anyone suggest an Overton # on this?

Thanks in advance :)
